Midnight Monthlies

My darkest thoughts fuel this midnight fire

فزت و رب الكعبة

Deconstructing and dismantling the system ain’t your biznez. Search for your blocks to the truth, ground yourself in love in midst of chaos, and manifest what’s in your heart not your mind. Leave it to Allaah to erase these institutions and systems you think are so powerful. They aren’t. They just seem so because of the weakness in us. We done lost our ways and became alienated from the pain that would call us to change and have compassion. So the world will be messed up for as long as people aren’t getting the lesson. Once the lesson is understood and integrated by even a handful of people, that’ll mark the tipping point. Empaths have the precocious knack to be the wayshowers and builders of new paradigms way before the old has even crumbled.

The point is in the pain, and it’s not for anyone to try to bypass the pain by punishing those who were the means for it. That is giving power to one who doesn’t have that kind of power and though it may soothe the ego to clapback or take them down, it only does further damage to the afflicted one.

You sidestepped your turf by living a life that doesn’t resonate with you and then you’re surprised when you end up in the wrong neighbourhood? You don’t choose nor have control over who you come across or what happens in the path you tread. But you absolutely have control over the path you take. We’re currently gentrifying the neighbourhoods of evil. You may strong-arm a politician here or influence a bill there, but you’re still coming home to the same electromagnetic field emitting from your heart. Even if your intention is to clean out the gutter, your focus is still in the gutter.

And We made the people who were considered weak to inherit the eastern parts of the land and the western parts thereof which We have blessed. And the fair Word of your Lord was fulfilled for the Children of Israel, because of their endurance. And We destroyed completely all the great works and buildings which Fir’aun (Pharaoh) and his people erected.
